Corona Virus Impacts Heating Oil Prices<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A few macro events have affected prices recently, the\nbiggest of which is the Corona Virus that is becoming a global epidemic. Per\nBloomberg<\/a> as of today, the death toll of the Corona Virus has exceeded 805,\nwhich is the number of lives that the SARS outbreak claimed in the early 2000s.\nFortunately, China has committed $10B to combatting the virus, and the US has\ninstalled checkpoints at all the major hotspots where foreigners enter the\ncountry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, global travel has ground to a halt, with virtually all air travel in and out of China on hold. Believe it or not, this has quite a meaningful impact on the global demand for oil, so we\u2019re seeing prices lower than they\u2019ve been all season. FuelSnap prices are ranging in the low-to-mid $2 range, with some areas on Long Island even dipping below $2 this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prices in Long Island have dipped as low as $2\/gallon recently. <\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

FuelSnap in The News<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We had some exciting press coverage<\/a> this week, where Joe and I were featured on the cover of the CT Post, New Haven Register, and the Danbury News Times (maybe elsewhere too?). I will write an additional blog post<\/a> covering this article so you can read it start-to-finish, as some of these sites require a subscription to read the article. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Going into Valentine\u2019s Day week, we\u2019re continuing to add dealers <\/a>to the FuelSnap network. Just this past week, we\u2019ve added dealers in the central\/coastal CT area, Suffolk County, Long Island area, and Portland, Maine area. We\u2019ve got great coverage now throughout most of the Northeast and folks are loving the convenience of ordering through the platform. Lots to come in the coming months, so stay tuned!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Happy heating,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
